You know something about how insults show ignorance or they show that you have no legitimate argument. Isn't there a saying?

If you were half as smart as you think you are, you'd still be twice as smart as you really are.

I think what you want is, "When you begin to insult your opponent, you have lost the argument." Often people who run out of evidence feel threatened and prideful. They refuse to acknowledge the weakness or fallacy of their position and must defend with things that are not Germain to the debate. Insults of a personal nature are common once that happens.

I am rubber
you are glue
everything you say
bounces off me and sticks to you
it simply means that the ignorance that leaves your mouth never leaves you

you could say insults and sarcasm are the lowest form of wit?

Sticks and stones may break my bones,
but words will never hurt me.

Could it be something like "miserable loves company".

It's not what they call you, but what you answer too.
